Because Florida is right on the ocean, it used to be home to many pirates hundreds of years ago.

Shipwrecked sailors wander some of the Florida beaches, as do the women who pined away while waiting for men to come back from the sea.

There were also plenty of smuggling operations running out of Florida, which creates even more intrigue on some of the hikes in Florida.

3. Bagdad Cemetery

Outside of Bagdad, you can walk through the cemetery near the town.

While you might not think that the cemetery is scary during the day time, we dare you to visit at night.

The famous large round ball tombstone in the south east corner of the cemetery rotates at night, according to the locals.

If that is not enough to make you think twice about visiting, listen closely for the laughing voices that come from nowhere.

4. Coquina Beach

During your hike, Head to Bradenton and go all the way to the end of Coquina Beach.

This area used to be a hotel, but it has been converted to a picnic area.

Visitors to the area say that they can see a man in all black clothing walking from the picnic area to the water, where he vanishes without a trace.

No one knows who he is or where he comes from, but he has been seen by many witnesses. After a psychic reviewed the area, he believes the man to be someone who died here long ago and is seeking atonement.
